Owner
Janelle Langan
As a Quad City Resident for over 25 years, Janelle Langan began her career in the management field. It wasn’t until 2006 that she joined her husband in the flooring business. There, she was responsible for merchandising, product planning, marketing campaigns and strategies, and hiring and sales training. It was then that Janelle and her husband realized that even on the flooring side of design, clients needed help. They needed someone to confirm their choices and were relieved and thrilled when they had a partner who paired the flooring with the right paint and furniture. Even though Janelle and her husband were just “a flooring store,” they provided much more than just flooring. In fact, some of their major home builders started noticing their design insight and expertise, which springboarded Janelle into her role as a designer.
“Like a divine intervention, we are a design intervention. People are afraid to make decisions about design for fear that they will make the wrong one. I don’t impose my ideas – I draw on what my clients want then provide my visions and create the space they want. They come out in pieces like a puzzle and I put them all together.”
“One of the greatest joys is watching the face of our clients when we nailed it. The expression on their faces and sometimes even tears of joy, is my greatest reward. My only intervention is to take the fear out of where to go, how to start, and how to do it.”
Janelle’s Family
Janelle Langan and her husband Shawn live in Bettendorf and share 4 kids together: Ashleigh (husband Andy), Tyler (wife Hillary), Taylor, and Nicholas. They have two beautiful grandchildren - Addyson and Frankie, and are guardians of their ‘famous’ 3-year-old Bernedoodle, Jake.
What do you love most about your work?
“My clients and my team! I can’t do it without them! My second favorite thing is finding solutions to complex challenges. Much of this comes after we dive into the construction of the project. The team needs quick decisions to stay on schedule. I love when we all get together, ponder the ‘problem’ and everyone brings a dynamic to the solution. I never really get flustered about solutions…the team always works right through it and the end result is just magical!
